ok so what signs are there when there is a co2 deficiency? If its starved of this then it dies but what are the SIGNS. Do the leaves go yellow? Do they get spots? Or does it ignite randomly?

They won't die, but won't grow either

Lack of CO2 may contribute to nut lockup as the plant doesn't use the same amount of fertilizer or water when it is dormant. No CO2 in a hot space or with bright lights is a formula for stunting.

Stunting, slow or no new growth and plants that don'r drink enough are what I notice.

hahah.. well, personally i didn't think it was possible...unless you're growing a bio dome of dozens of plants..

Simply breathing and living in the same house as your plants (assuming you have 2 or 3) will provide enough co2

Cheers,
